Hidden in the mountains of Turkey and parts of the Middle East grows a wild grain called Triticum dicoccoides, or wild emmer wheat—the ancient ancestor of modern wheat. What’s astonishing is that its genetic code is already preloaded with complex duplication systems that allow it to hybridize with other grasses and survive in harsh climates. It’s as if this plant was built with future farming in mind. Even more mysterious, wild emmer’s DNA contains massive amounts of information—more than most living things—yet it serves a very specific and efficient purpose. How a wild plant, supposedly shaped by blind evolutionary forces, ended up with genetic software advanced enough to support modern agriculture is something science still can’t fully explain.

What’s even stranger is how early human civilizations just happened to “find” this grain and begin cultivating it, despite its growth being restricted to very specific altitudes and soil conditions. Without this plant, the development of bread—and by extension, much of modern civilization—would’ve been impossible.

Modern agriculture began in this same area (after the flood). I don't find this to be a coincidence. God had this all planned from the beginning
